Michael McPhee is a systems engineer at Cisco in New York, where he has worked for the last 4 years and has focused on cyber security, switching, and routing. Mike's current role sees him consulting on security and network infrastructures, and he frequently runs clinics and delivers training to help get his customers up to speed. Suffering from a learning addiction, Mike has obtained the following certifications along the way: CEH, CCIE R&S, CCIE Security, CCIP, CCDP, ITILv3, and the Cisco Security White Belt. He is currently working on his VCP6-DV certification, following his kids to soccer games and tournaments, traveling with his wife and kids to as many places as possible, and scouting out his future all-grain beer home brewing rig. He also spends considerable time breaking his home network (for science!), much to the family's dismay. Prior to joining Cisco, Mike spent 6 years in the U.S. Navy and another 10 working on communications systems as a systems engineer and architect for defense contractors, where he helped propose, design, and develop secure command and control networks and electronic warfare systems for the US DoD and NATO allies.
